“Celestial Fox, I will leave Jin Tian and Ling Yan in your care.” Bai Yan reluctantly hands the two babies over to the fox. Pursing her lips: “I just saw a certain segment of the valley that I liked so I’ll be staying there for my training. If my babies are hungry then bring them to me, otherwise I need to be alone.”
The celestial fox squeaked in response, indicating she understood and will do as told. It’s just that the disgust in her eyes towards the demon king never abated….
“By the way Celestial Fox,” Bai Yan first looks to her husband, then back to the fox, “this place also has male animals, why do you hate men from the outside so much despite this fact?”
The little fella snorted like the answer was obvious.
These are her companions who had been with her since a long time ago, how could they be compared to those abominable men?
Regardless, she just hates men! If it wasn’t for Bai Yan, she would never have allowed a man to step into her territory!
Able to guess the gist of that snort, Bai Yan pats her husband’s shoulder as a pitying gesture. So even someone as handsome as Di Cang will be disliked one day….
But contrary to the pitying look from his wife, Di Cang didn’t feel much from this and even found it nice for a change. In comparison to having those wishful thoughts about himself from those females, this was way better because it won’t let Bai Yan misunderstand him.
“Di Cang, if you have something to do then you can leave first. I’m very safe here in the Sky Mountain.”
“Don’t worry Yan’er, go ahead and be at ease during your training. If the Demon Realm requires me then I will go handle it on my own.”
“Okay.” She nods, not wanting to be a baggage to the rest of the demon world.
Giving one final glance to her eldest boy who was still unconscious, Bai Yan has pretty much tied up any loose ends here on her part. Steeling that heart, she firmly walks toward the mentioned part of the valley.
…………
Demon City.
After the departure of their king and queen, this new frontier for the demonkin hasn’t had a single day of peace thus far. First came the rumor of Di Cang wanting a concubine and driving the queen away, then came the second invasion of the Celestial Realm. Thankfully First Elder and his brothers were able to come out of their closed-door training in the nick of time and repelled the attackers, otherwise the damage and loss would be extensive that day.
Pity though, due to how quickly and rushed the elders were in returning to making a breakthrough, the rumor about the concubine business still hasn’t been cleared up, for that mistake, another year has passed with that hovering in the air….
As for the communities in the Celestial Realm, oddly enough, some were beginning to forget about this Demon City after having so little news and action from them thus far. But the Celestial Palace wouldn’t think like that though. They wanted to retake the settlement on many occasions, however, every time they tried to attack in force, Chu Yi God would promptly send out a warning to stop them in their tracks.
Of course, there’s one specific individual who dreaded this stalemate the most and that was Yun Ruo Xi. Unlike the rest, only this dreaded imposter knew that the precious charm around her neck – the item signifying her current lifestyle and status – would one day return to its true owner if things doesn’t change!
“Miss,” a maid calls out after noticing the lady coming out of the room, “the Keepers are asking you to meet them in the great hall.”
Blinking her eyes, The Keepers are looking for me? How come? Why are they asking for me when they should be thinking up a plan to deal with the demons….
After a long silence, she pursed her lip and decides to heed the summoning despite the questions in her mind.
